Ah…the moving process. My son and I have moved in with my partner, and it’s wonderful! We started our life in our new home with the obligatory pizza night – ordering pizza from our favorite local pizza place. Our world is currently filled with tons of boxes – and books – so it’s going to …
There’s a lot of talk about happiness and happiness projects. I like to keep a list of things I can do that make me happy/will lighten a dark or anxious mood when I find myself in one. Here’s a sample of items on my list: Listen to cheesy 80s music – the cheesier the better …
Theme Song: “La Vie En Rose” Madeleine Peyroux Projects: Lots of writing and editing; purging belongings that are not needed So, I was going through my stuff (in a fit of insomnia, which happens from time to time) and I found a box of hidden journals.
